Seems OK to me (but I did not test it). But shifting -s options is not
backward compatible. What about adding new option. I dig into some
archivers and theirs options are here:
unzip -j as junk paths
unarj e as extract archive, x as extract with pathnames
I like unarj's way, but dat has -e option which extracts with pathnames,
which is the opposite of unarj. Damn! What about -j?

If so, new targets should be inserted into makefile to create them on
make. Something like dats or datafiles target which is executed after
programs target.
Have a nice day.
